«INTENDED» is an important
word in the agreement document and maybe one of the reasons why it was possible
to reach an agreement and why «No reservations may be made to this Agreement»
as expressed in Article 27.
In the years to come it
will be focused on how the agreement is interpreted. That will be of the
utmost importance.
CLIPPINGS FROM THE PDF-DOCUMENT:
17. Notes with
concern that the estimated aggregate greenhouse gas emission levels in 2025 and
2030 resulting from the intended nationally determined contributions do not
fall within least-cost 2 ˚C scenarios but rather lead to a projected level of
55 gigatonnes in 2030, and also notes that much greater emission
reduction efforts will be required than those associated with the intended
nationally determined contributions in order to hold the increase in the global
average temperature to below 2 ˚C above pre-industrial levels by reducing
emissions to 40 gigatonnes or to 1.5 ˚C above pre-industrial levels by reducing
to a level to be identified in the special report referred to in paragraph 21
